I was recently awaken by a cat nuzzrling at my face. The only weird part of this story is that I do not have a cat. This can only mean that I have been infested. There is some cat in my house and I will find it!

When you live in a dumpster behind a Chinese Restaurant you will get critters in your bed....

There is a feral cat in my neighborhood. Everybody feeds it. It is a kind of free cat that belongs to everyone and no one. When I opened my door this morning the thing ran out. I hope it didn't pee or poop somewhere. But yes, if you open your door the thing will slink in and it leaves whenever it chooses to.

Sounds like my neighbors cat.  He just marches in like he lives here.  My 3 cats and my dog all treat him like he belongs.  He likes to nap in my favorite reading chair.

This cat has no shame. It likes to jump up on my sofa in the TV room, and it just grooms away as if I am not even there. That cat could not care less about me. But it is kind of cute.

Maybe it's decided you are the chosen one.😊

Nope. I have a crazy Catholic neighbor. She's 75 years old and is a little goofy. She keeps making food for me and the food is bland and overcooked. She just gave me some chicken yesterday and it was something. No salt, no pepper, no nothing. That is the most plain chicken I have ever eaten. I never knew what just plain simple chicken taste like. I do now.


Anyway, she tried to capture the cat and make it her own. It did not work. As soon as she opened the door the thing bolted, and now it refuses to go back. She keeps chasing it and calling to it, but it will not let her come too close.

One morning Mom woke me for school and found a mouse nestled on my chest under the covers. I must have been a sound sleeper.

Here in Brooklyn we’ve got lots of street cats. I watch them in the neighboring backyards from my 3rd floor vantage point. My avatar should tell you I think cats are awesome and I’m lucky to have a few to observe, besides my two.

Quick story. I often see a neighbor walking his dog in front of the house at a fairly rapid pace. But look closer and he’s being followed by a beautiful black and white cat, one I had thought was a street cat, tagging along the edge of the curb, dashing between the parked cars, following the dog and his owner to the corner where they all make a left turn – every time. Darnedest thing.

Yes. Me too. I must have dozed off on the couch watching Stargate Atlantis on AP. Apparently I was in the way and did not know it. The cat was walking on me and licking my face. As soon as I got up, it perched itself right where I was and started grooming. I think I was in her way and she wanted me to get up and move so she could have the couch to herself.

Spent some time in Brooklyn Crown Heights with the Lubavitchers. But that was a long time ago. I actually saw the rebbi before he died. He led the Mincha. I was honored to be among the crowd.

It was probably just one of these.  They are smarter than cats and have a way of getting in.  And they'll eat cat food AND dog food.  Not particular.  As long as you feed them, they won't punish you (don't worry).  Happy parenting!

I haven't seen @aligncare's avatar in some time.  I miss the kitty....

Okay, I've started a GoFundMe account to buy @aligncare an avatar. Send money.

@240B

WRONG! Cats do NOT associate with humans they don't like. Don't believe me,try picking up one that tries to avoid you. You won't do this more than once.

I have a rescue cat that hates being picked up,but likes to jump on my pillow and groom my hair and eyebrows when I go to bed. If I try to stop her,she runs away and then comes back once I am settled again. Had her for over two years now,and even though she has recently started allowing me to pet her,she still won't let me pick her up without getting scratched.

My cat (the male) can make himself invisible.  He sneaks out the door (and in) without me ever seeing him.  Must be a Harry Potter thing.

I'm walking by, just minding my own business. My crazy Catholic neighbor started yelling at me. Come! Come here! F**K! What the hell!? So I run to her. She gave me a Butterfinger, 100 Grand, and a Baby Ruth. She gave me freakin' candy. Ok man. Alright. As long as she if safe I'm good with it. Trick or Treat!

She is here. Somehow, I can feel it. When I go to sleep, she will lick my face.

We had a female cat, outstanding hunter, who could do that while carrying a live or dead or almost dead animal. 

She brought my days old grandson a live rabbit.  Naturally, my daughter threw a fit.  Next she brought him a dead rabbit.  Another fit from the new mom.  Finally, she brought him an eviscerated rabbit.  My explanation that Maggie was merely trying to help feed the baby didn't go over well, so I had to drive to TN to rescue the cat from a vengeful mother.

I had a Lynx-point female that was always bringing something in.  You haven't lived until you've tripped over a dead squirrel in a long, dark hallway....lol.
